Serious question: Is a 21 straight goal run the greatest in AFL history?

 

[Snake_Baker]

Stay classy Teffy

Are you going to instruct me to report to the diary room?

 

[SpiderBurton22]

Who scored your goal?

You would have only seen 1 goal too, 20 seconds in.

No way you would have been still watching when you kicked your last 3 in the final 3 minutes.

But they still happened

Second

Most

Successive

Goals

EVER

 

[SpiderBurton22]

But they still happened

Yep, amazing wasn't it. It made a 122 point loss come back to a respectable 104 point one.

 

[Snake_Baker]

The second most successive goals EVER to a team that was 11th on the ladder!!!

 

[DapperJong]

Yep, amazing wasn't it. It made a 122 point loss come back to a respectable 104 point one.

Still, we didn’t score our lowest ever score. That would have been really bad.

I see you guys aren’t quite phased by it. Pretty telling.

 

[Snake_Baker]

1.8 in an outdoor bogfest on a bowling alley, or conceding 21 straight on dry carpet..............hmmmmm

 

[boncer34]

We'll extend Woosha contract this week.

I would be more phased if we were expected to be contenders but conceded 21 unanswered to a bottom 8 team.

Who conceded 21 to a bottom 8 team?

I’m sure Teffy is going through ye olde afl tables to look it up. What a lovely way to spend a Sunday

Our worst return in AFL/VFL history and your lot managed to upstage that!!!

It's certainly record book pr0n, by any standard.

Only upstaged because we’re relevant.

No one really gives a s**t that you scored 14 points in a whole game.

 

[Snake_Baker]

Only upstaged because we’re relevant.

So "relevant" that you were relegated by a lawn bowls club to an outer Northern suburban industrial park!

No one really gives a s**t that you scored 14 points in a whole game.

We kept the opposition to 8 goals in total.

Your lot leaked 21 in a row.

Awesome job go north

 

[Snake_Baker]

Dapper, you should have a spell now, or I may very well troll you out of existence today, as I much prefer to savor these moments over time.

 

[Only Forwards]

When was the last time North lost by 100 to a team below us on the ladder?

Has this ever happened?

 

[Hojuman]

Afraid yes. 1983. You don't want to know. Believe me.

No tag or quote this time?

White flag goes up hey

Afraid yes. 1983. You don't want to know. Believe me.

Fitzroy?

1983 was the year of freakish results.

Sat through it. But.......story goes flu had spread through the group and blokes literally dragged outta bed to play. And that from a trainer who also had it.

There were a lot of wildly swinging results in that season.

Injuries killed us that year.

 

[Snake_Baker]

I get it. You’ve had enough.

Chat again in say 14 days?

That’s 1.8 14

Make it 21 and we can talk about finals.............or not.
